I won Best of Show in my local quilt guild for this quilt.
    WoW!

If your avatar pic is a quilt - please post a bigger pic along with the name and designer of the block. A link to directions you used might be nice as well. I am asking because due to the small size of the avatar pics it is sometimes difficult to pick out all the detail and identify the pattern. Thanks in advance for participating - can't wait to see your pics!!
    This was a great idea! I enjoyed looking at everybody's pics. Hope people keep adding to it.

    My Avatar is a block that I made for a quilt block swap. It is called "Another Star" from Quilter's Cache and it makes a very pretty quilt.

    OK - I guess you dont need to reply to my private message asking for the ID of this quilt :roll: I was actually quite lucky to take a class from Judy Matheison when she first started to teach.... when I was pregnant with my eldest, now 32!

    Mine is a TATW (Trip Around the World) Unfortunately I don't have a link to the pattern. I added the border to the top and bottom so it would be longer than wider.

    Thanks fayza, I received the fat quarters in another swap and made this block from them. We were making this block for a swap too. The fq's were from the Kansas Troubles group. I only added the lightest one from my stash.
